Today is “National Beer Day” so everyone should raise a glass of their favorite beer and salute all the other members of this great community.
bocephus 3 hours till the brewery opens. Counting down the time to toast a White Stout at the Wrecking Brew Crew Brewery at 4:05. Cheers

Well, went shopping for horseradish root and obtained it for Easter dinner. Then, came across a beer vendor hawking Shiner Candied Pecan. Bought it to sip with some Knob Creek Single Barrel 120 proof. The Shiner was very smooth and could taste the pecans. Made watching the Masters very enjoyable.

zbigjeff Now that is a perfect combination!

My buddy gave me a bottle of Woodford Reserve Double Oaked, I thought it was decent. For me it’s not bad but I don’t see all the craziness for it. Though it is my understanding some bottles change their flavor as you drink them, this could be one of them.

HerbcoFood I have 5 different double oaked bourbons and this one is tops on my list when my taste buds want that flavor. Just go for what your taste buds tell you and enjoy.

zbigjeff I liked the Noble Oak double oaked better than this one.

HerbcoFood I’ve heard lots of good things about this one as well.

HerbcoFood Sooooo, pour one and enjoy it. That’s why there are options. I also like the Noble Oak and could be equal on “that” specific day. Cheers.

Jumped off the bourbon trail today and tried an adjacent one. A revival of an old name from what I read. A decent pour.

zbigjeff I am and always do, we all have different taste buds. I am not scared to say when something isn’t for me. My buddy also appreciated the honest opinion, he knows I will share it with people who want to sample it. This bottle won’t go to waste.

Just tossed the brisket on, this will be my drink for a few before I get into the coffee and then into more dark water and a stogie.

HerbcoFood We totally think alike on this front. Cheers

HerbcoFood Love your process. Throw it on the barby, set up something to sip and then light a stogie and enjoy. Then, repeat!!!

PapaSop it was surprisingly good when I had it. I picked mine up while in Tennessee and the store owner told me it was a revival of an old whiskey. Glad you enjoyed it. Life’s too short for bad whiskeys.

GWG8541 That is the truth and there are a ton out there!

Saw this at a random Spec’s that had the scotch I was looking for. It’s to be one of those high demand bottles. It was limit 1 per customer.

HerbcoFood My wife and I are house and dog sitting for my inlaws. My brother inlaw isn’t much of a whiskey drinker, but has a bar that most of of would envy. Not necessarily for the liquor, but for the bar itself. The best part is he picked up some Smoke Wagon recently and I get to try before I buy now. He even has a bottle of small batch.

GWG8541 All I can say is wow, Wow! That is more than that doctor’s house I looked at in Lake Hopatcong New Jersey over 20 years ago. But then he had the restaurant, dancefloor, machine shop, & wine cellar too that were basically bigger than my own home. Wow again!
